Part 2
Compare to Siddhartha Gautama
A brief transition paragraph which alerts the reader that a discussion of significant differences is beginning.
The final section will be a comparison of some significant differences between the religious figure you wrote about in Part 1 and Jesus Christ.
This section may or may not have more citations, but it will definitely not reflect your personal bias, opinion or beliefs.
Here are some (not necessarily all) possible points of comparison between your religious figure and Jesus Christ:
- You might discuss the ways that the work of the two can be verified in history.
- You might discuss how each of them is reported to continue living even after experiencing physical death.
- You might discuss how both of them related to the Old Testament, or the Bible in general.
- You might discuss the different ways in which both related to God.
- If you think that Jesus Christ and your religious figure had different ideas about how to take care of the poor, you could write about that, as long as you don't say that you think one is better than the other.
- Similarly, you might be able to discuss the different perspectives each had about the purpose of suffering.
